I haven't been here since the 90's, but I have seriously warm and fuzzy memories of this place. It was where I bought my first mountain bike (A Univega Alpina Sport) back in 1988. For ages, this was the spot I'd go to for tires and parts...and several times the bike came back here after several crashes involving injury and/or hospitalization.
The owner at the time was Gary, and he was sort of crazy....not bad crazy, but a breed of crazy that you looked forward to seeing. Craziness marked by wild ideas...ideas that he wasn't afraid in the least of pursuing full-steam ahead. Sometimes I thought he was off his rocker, but come time to buy bike stuff he was honest, amiable, and always a guy I liked to do business with.
Years have gone by, and I'd lay dollars-to-doughnuts that his son Ryan has taken things over. Wild-eyed Yankee ingenuity may not be in as plentiful supply as it was back then....but my guess is that this is still the place to get a bike or get one fixed in Klamath Falls. read more
